Hi Graeme
It's been a while, but I think the default is prominent ie informal=yes
makes tracks less prominent, but no operator or informal tag is the same
as operator=*
As OSM gets bigger, a lot of the newer tracks being added are faint pads
(the official ones generally got mapped years ago). However, these
appear as prominent as official Parks tracks on mapping services like
Gaia, which are now in wide use by consumers. Which is why I think this
would be good tagging for mappers to add/fix.
While you could argue it is mapping for the renderer, it is still just
using the tags as intended, and also as per the Aus Mapping Guidelines.
cheers
Tom

Gaia GPS (possibly amongst other downstream
applications) renders formal tracks - tagged with "operator=*" - more
prominently than those tagged as "informal=yes".
How about the third option (which I would think is possibly the most
common?) - no operator tag, but also not tagged as informal?
How do they appear?
Thanks
Graeme
